Torque about which point?
Torque in which plane?

Torque is a measure of the force that causes an object to rotate around an axis or pivot point. It is calculated by multiplying the force applied by the distance from the pivot point to the point where the force is applied. In other words, torque is the rotational equivalent of force.
The torque for a force can be equal to 0 if the force is applied at a distance of 0 from the pivot point. This means that there is no perpendicular distance between the force and the pivot point, so there is no rotational effect or torque.
To determine if the torque for a force is equal to 0, you need to calculate the torque using the formula: torque = force x distance. If the distance is equal to 0, then the torque will also be equal to 0.
The torque for a force can be affected by the magnitude and direction of the force, as well as the distance between the force and the pivot point. The type of force (such as a push or a pull) and the angle at which the force is applied can also impact the torque.
Torque is used in many real-world applications, such as in engines and motors to produce rotational motion. It is also important in sports, such as in throwing a ball or swinging a bat. In engineering, torque is used to design and analyze structures that need to withstand rotational forces. It is also used in physics experiments to study rotational motion and calculate the moment of inertia for objects.
